A Canadian commercial newspaper
makes . strong and sensible plea
against the credit system a doing bust
ness, which prevails generally in the
rural districts Of that country. There
are stores in many of the country
towns and villages. the writer says.
where q cash transaction is unknown.
Every thing is booked, and the mer-
chant collects his bills when he can. il
be collects them At all. This is not, in
many cases, because the purchaser
lacks means to pay with. ''but simply
from the ingrained habit Of demanding
credit as = right. and looking upon the
payment of cash as giving in some nm
defined way an undue advantage to the
storekeeper."
How many places there are in this
country where precisely the same sys-
tenn prevails. Customers from sheer
force of habit let their store bills run
for weeks and months when they could
as well pay them as not, thus keeping
the merchant out of money which he
could use to the profit of both by dis
counting his own bills for cash; for, as
a matter of course, the cheaper the
merchant can buy his goods the better
the bargains he can offer his custom
ers. 1t is indeed more to the interest
of the latter than himself that his busi-
ness be conducted as nearly as possible
on q cash basis. because in any event
he must have his own profit, whether
his goods be sold high or low, and the
cash customer gets the profit in the
ca3.
The credit system is at best expen-
sive, and to the extent that it is unnec-
essary it is vicious and demoralizing.
The community that is sharp. wide
awake and up with the times will do its
business on n cash basis, thus getting
the benefit of the very lowest prices
and closest margins which the rapid
turning over Of money always obtains.
The retail merchants of the rural dis
tricts should stand together for the
abolition of the perverted credit sys-
